About Refract
Refract is a production-grade TypeScript SaaS boilerplate built around one truth: your business will pivot, your pricing will change, and most codebases won't survive it. What you get out of the box: Plug-and-play billing with idempotent Stripe webhooks and dynamic plan management Dynamic RBAC and multi-tenancy — B2B-ready from day one Pluggable infrastructure — swap queue, mailer, cache, or analytics providers without touching your product logic 80%+ test coverage on the billing and auth core Runs locally via Docker Compose with a single command — deploys to Railway in minutes Comprehensive Cursor rules for AI-assisted development The pivot is a config change, not a rewrite. That's the promise.
